3. Discworld Mafia

Lawrencelot is dead. Lawrencelot was the town jailer, Doughnut Jimmy. His concoctions always took you out, it was like he was giving you horse medicine!

4. Monstrous Masquerade Mafia.

Misnomer was the town Jailer. Once per night they could “jail” a target, making them both unable to perform or be affected by night actions.

5. Shakespeare Mafia

You are Mercutio, friend to Romeo and to the Prince.

You, like Beatrice, are born to speak all mirth and no matter. Your posting restriction is to employ wordplay (or other humorous devices, such as irony) in some way in at least every other post.

As a friend to the prince, you may jail one other player each night. They will be both roleblocked and unable to be attacked.

You are town, and win when all threats to the town have been neutralized.

I didn't have much hope, after the N1/D2 debacle, of coming out on top. Bizarrely, town would have won on N2 WITHOUT the jailing as I had tried to recruit freezeblade - his power was way too dangerous to a suspected recruiter, so I had to get him onto my side.

With the misfortune of both Vytron and I killing SDK, the serial killer dead and thus no real number thinning going on, and my teammate turning out to be suspicious purely because they had the misfortune to be Lucy, I'm not sure what else I could have done. I hoped that my fake claim might delay suspicion on me for a couple of days at least, but really the mass claim did not do me any favours.

It would also have been nice to actually have had someone to chat with in my first game to bounce ideas off, but I didn't join the main scum faction until D2 and only had night chat, but no team mates to talk with from that point on.

I'm still confused about bessie and her certainty. What was your power, or were you simply plain old mason?

I think the only real problem here was that there were a fairly small number of canonical characters available, which made name claiming too powerful. Of course none of us guessed that Count Orlock was present…

Thanks so much for the attention to detail in the flavor, which really adds to such a game.

Actually, I think ConMan mentioned it, and that was one reason I voted for him D1, as I couldn't risk him being able to persuade everyone else that Orlock was around. If I'd known he was a serial killer, I suspect I wouldn't have worried, but hindsight and all that.

Sorry so long in replying to this. The game ended just as I was leaving on my trip.

Thank you Djehutynakht and Suzaku for running this game. I had a very enjoyable time playing. And the flavor was brilliant, especially the hint about the double kill (hooray I was right about something).

I finally read through the spoilers and it looks like SDK was by himself on D1 and recruited Misnomer N1? So I was right about Misnomer but for the wrong reasons, I guess my scumdar is still needs work. I am unclear after reading the spoilers as to whether or not Misnomer and freezeblade knew they were lovers.

Jimbobmacdoodle, I thought you played a great first game! Good job on choosing a believable fake claim; I was never certain if you were town or scum. I believed you were scum because I saw your claimed win condition as antitown, but no one else ever seemed to agree with me on that, therefore I always doubted my read on you. Jimbob, what was your real win condition if you didn’t kill Dracula?

Madge, I’m sorry if I annoyed you. I’m trying to develop a more aggressive meta so that if I’m ever actually scum in a game again I won’t look so out of place that I am lynched D1. By the way congratulations and welcome to married life.

It was at the zoo, so it was an offered service for duing the cocktail hour - her name was Wendy and she is a Woma Python! She was really cool.

Another bit of australiana:

We also had a welcome to country (background: http://www.noongar.org.au/images/pdf/fo ... ide16p.pdf ; photo from the ceremony: http://i.imgur.com/fEVh673.jpg ) - it's a way of acknowledging the traditional, aboriginal owners of the land by inviting someone from the local aboriginal community to speak at the beginning of the event. The lady in the picture's name is Ingrid and she sort of led everyone in singing some traditional celebration chant, I guess you could call it, as well as doing a little bit of singing herself (she had a wonderful voice) and talking a little bit about love and marriage. It was a real honour to be able to make this small gesture to such a marginalised group.

As with most such situations where europeans invade/"settle" a new place, the Aboriginal people in Australia had entire cultures and languages eradicated. We're really fortunate in Perth that the Noongar people are still around, and their language is now spoken by 250 people - up from 150 20 years ago. Unfortunately, there's so many ways in which the past and present situation is so hard for the Aboriginal people - their life expectancy is TEN YEARS LOWER than non-Aboriginal Australians, and poverty, alcoholism, etc is unfortunately rampant, not to mention racism due to the stereotypes that result from this. I hope that things continue to improve, but it's so bad, and in many ways things are getting worse.
